Standards • SPS4. Students will investigate the arrangement of the periodic table. • a. Determine the trends of the following • Number of valence electrons • Types of ions formed by representative elements • Locations of metals, nonmetals and metalloids • Phases at room temperature
Section 6.1 – Ionic Bonds • When the highest occupied energy level of an atom is filled with electrons, the atom is stable and not likely to react. • The noble gases have stable electron configurations with eight valence electrons (or two in the case of helium).
Stable Electron Configurations • The chemical properties of an element depend on the number of valence electrons. • An electron dot diagram is a model of an atom in which each dot represents a valence electron.
Ionic Bonds • Some elements achieve stable electron configurations through the transfer of electrons between atoms. • An atom that has a net positive or negative charge is called an ion.
Ions • An ion with a negative charge is an anion. Anions like the Cl- ion are named by adding the suffix –ide to the element name. (Ex. Cl- = chloride) • An ion with a positive charge is a cation. The name of a cation is the same as the element name. (Ex. Na+ = sodium)
Ion Charges • The charges that an ion has are based on the number of valence electrons that an element has. • All of the elements in the same group have the same charge.
Ion Charges • Is it easier for lithium to gain 7 more electrons or lose 1 electron? • What charge would lithium have? lose 1 electron +1
Ion Charges • Is it easier for beryllium to gain 6 more electrons or lose 2 electrons? • What charge would beryllium have? lose 2 electrons +2
Ion Charges • Is it easier for boron to gain 5 more electrons or lose 3 electrons? • What charge would boron have? lose 3 electrons +3
Ion Charges • Is it easier for carbon to gain 4 more electrons or lose 4 electrons? • What charge would carbon have? lose or gain 4 electrons +4 or -4
Ion Charges • Is it easier for nitrogen to gain 3 more electrons or lose 5 electrons? • What charge would nitrogen have? gain 3 electrons -3
Ion Charges • Is it easier for oxygen to gain 2 more electrons or lose 6 electrons? • What charge would oxygen have? gain 2 electrons -2
Ion Charges • Is it easier for fluorine to gain 1 more electron or lose 7 electrons? • What charge would fluorine have? gain 1 electron -1
Ion Charges • Would neon want to gain or lose electrons? • What charge would neon have? No, it has a full energy level 0
Ion Charges • Since elements in the same group have the same number of valence electrons, they all have the same charge.
Formation of Ionic Bonds • A chemical bond is the force that holds atoms or ions together as a unit. • An ionic bond is the force that holds cations and anions together. • An ionic bond forms when electrons are transferred from one atom to another.
Formation of Ionic Bonds • When an ionic bond is formed, electrons are transferred until each atom has a full outer energy level.
Ionic Compounds • Compounds that contain ionic bonds are ionic compounds, which can be represented by chemical formulas. • A chemical formula is a notation that shows what elements a compound contains and the ratio of the atoms or ions of these elements in the compound.
Crystal Lattices • A chemical formula for an ionic compound tells you the ratio of the ions in the compound. • Solids whose particles are arranged in a lattice structure are called crystals.
Properties of Ionic Compounds • Ionic compounds tend to have high melting points (above 300oC). • Ionic compounds are poor conductors in the solid state, but they can conduct heat or electricity when they are melted. • Ionic compounds are brittle, so they shatter when struck by a hammer. • The properties of ionic compounds can be explained by the strong attractions among ions within a crystal lattice.
Section 6.1 Assessment • When is an atom least likely to react? • Describe one way an element can achieve a stable electron configuration. • What characteristic of ionic bonds can be used to explain the properties of ionic compounds? • What will the ratio of ions be in any compound formed from a Group 1 metal and a Group 7 nonmetal?
Section 6.1 Assessment • Why do ionic compounds include at least one metal? • Based on their chemical formulas, which of these compounds is not likely to be an ionic compounds: KBr, SO2, or FeCl3?
Section 6.2 – Covalent Bonding • A covalent bond is a chemical bond in which two atoms share a pair of valence electrons. • When two atoms share one pair of electrons, the bond is called a single bond.
Molecules of Elements • A molecule is a neutral group of atoms that are joined together by one or more covalent bonds. • The attractions between the shared electrons and the protons in each nucleus hold the atoms together in a covalent bond. • Many nonmetal elements exist as diatomic molecules. Diatomic means two atoms. They are H2, F2, Cl2, N2,Br2, O2, and I2.
Multiple Covalent Bonds • When two atoms share two pairs of electrons, the bond is called a double bond. • When two atoms share three pairs of electrons, the bond is called a triple bond.
Section 6.2 Assessment • What attractions hold atoms together in a covalent bond? • Which of these elements does not bond to form molecules: oxygen, chlorine, neon, or sulfur? • Based on their electron dot diagrams, what is the formula for the covalently bonded compound of nitrogen and hydrogen?
Section 6.3 – Naming Compounds and Writing Formulas • The name of an ionic compound must distinguish the compound from other ionic compounds containing the same elements. • The formula of an ionic compound describes the ratio of the ions in the compound.
Binary Ionic Compounds • A compound made from only two elements is a binary compound. • When naming an ionic compound the name of the metal (cation) does not change and the name of the nonmetal (anion) has the suffix –ide. • Ex. MgBr2 = magnesium bromide
Metal with Multiple Ions • Many transition metals form more than one type of ion. • When a metal forms more than one ion, the name of the ion contains a roman numeral to indicate the charge of the ion. • Ex: Fe+2 = iron (II) Fe+3 = iron (III)
Polyatomic Ions • A covalently bonded group of atoms that has a positive or negative charge and acts as a unit is a polyatomic ion.
WRITING FORMULAS FOR IONIC COMPOUNDS • Place the symbol of the cation first, followed by the symbol of the anion. • Use subscripts to show the ratio of the ions in the compound. • Because all compounds are neutral, the total charges on the cations and anions must add up to zero.
Crossing Charges • To balance the charges in an ionic compound, you can cross the charges if they are not the same.
Describing Molecular Compounds • The name and formula of a molecular compound describe the type and number of atoms in a molecule of the compound. • Molecular compounds only contain nonmetals.
Naming Molecular Compounds • The name of the first element is the same. The name of the second element ends in the suffix -ide. • Prefixes tell the number of atoms of each element. A prefix is not used when the first element only has 1 atom. • Ex. CO2 = carbon dioxide
Prefixes 1 = mono 6 = hexa 2 = di 7 = hepta 3 = tri 8 = octa 4 = tetra 9 = nona 5 = penta 10 = deca
Writing Molecular Formulas • Write the symbols for the elements in the order the elements appear in the name. The prefixes indicate the number of atoms of each element in this molecule. • Ex: diphosphorus pentoxide = P2O5
Section 6.3 Assessment • What does the formula of an ionic compound describe? • What do the name and formula of a molecular compound describe? • What suffix is used to indicate an anion? • Why are Roman numerals used in the names of compounds that contain transition metals? • What is a polyatomic ion?

Section 6.4 – The Structure of Metals • In a metal, valence electrons are free to move among the atoms, so the cations are surrounded by a sea of electrons. • A metallic bond is the attraction between a metal cation and the shared electrons that surround it.
Metallic Bonds • The cations in a metal form a lattice that is held in place by strong metallic bonds between the cations and the surrounding valence electrons. • The more valence electrons an atom can contribute to the shared pool, the stronger the metallic bond will be.
Properties of Metals • The mobility of electrons within a metal lattice explains the fact that metals are good conductors and malleable.
Alloys • An alloy is a mixture of two or more elements that have metallic properties.
SECTION 6.4 ASSESSMENT • What holds metal ions together in a metal lattice? • What characteristic of a metallic bond explains some of the properties of metals? • Explain why the metallic bonds in some metals are stronger than the bonds in other metals. • Why are metals good conductors of electric current? • Can two different elements form a metallic bond together?
